This is Evangeline! Sorry, I'm a little busy right now, but leave a message and I'll get back to you as soon as I can!

I know. I want to. You're welcome.

[Shadow takes another sip of the wine.] I don't make friends easily. You made it easy. And I appreciate you. I want you to know that.

[abnormalizes]

I really don't know what to say.

[She can handle compliments about her looks or her bedroom prowess, but when people compliment her personality she gets flustered.]

But, I'm glad. You're an important friend to me.

[shatteredprison]

Then perhaps we both can acknowledge we don't need to say any more. And that we're both important friends to one another.

[...She reaches for his hand and gives it a squeeze.]

Okay. But, I'm glad I met you.

[shatteredprison]

I'm glad I met you too. [He turns his hand to hold hers back. Returning the squeeze with his own.]

[abnormalizes]

If there's ever anything else I can do to distract you, or help you feel better at all - just ask. I'm here for you.

[shatteredprison]

[Shadow drinks more wine and looks at Evangeline.]

My mind goes to the obvious, I'll admit. What would you do for a distraction, besides sex? What other activities would you do?

[abnormalizes]

Sex is definitely the distraction I'm best at, but besides that... Hmm. When I'm distracting myself I usually go for books.

[shatteredprison]

Having a new book to read wouldn't be a bad distraction. I still have the list of your recommendations. I'll get one from the library.

[abnormalizes]

Let me know how you like it so I can tailor more recommendations to your tastes.

[shatteredprison]

I'd like something that makes me think. Keeps my mind on the book. Perhaps a very well written mystery or something about the history of this world.

[abnormalizes]

Got it. I'll pick out a book you can really sink your teeth into.
